Unreliable delivery. Will not use Sears Parts Direct again
December 11, 2023

Product was fine. Sears parts direct was not. Supposed to be delivered on Nov 21. Finally arrived on Dec 8 after I had to buy one elsewhere. Impossible to contact, multiple numbers, same recording.

Harder to install than thought
October 06, 2021

I needed to replace my deck cable on my craftsman mower. I am not sure why or how but now when I start it the blade is in off position but when try to turn on blades it kills the mower. I don't know how as I put the lever in the off position when installed it. Also u are the only place that I can get a proper product for my craftsman. So thank you for that.
